THE IC ANON MEME

RULES AND INFO

✦ Everything must be from an IC in-world perspective. The meme is specifically a Legion fandom meme. UP citizens, Legion World Staff, and Legionnaires all have access to the meme. While this meme is in the meme comm, it is real in the game universe and all the Legionnaires and the public can see it ICly. Rather than other ic anon memes where characters post starters to the meme, this meme operates like real world memes like rpanons.

✦ There are 3 ways to post. When posting as non-Legionnaires, do it anon. When posting as Legionnaires that ~~unwisely~~ comment unanon, just do it logged in. If posting as Legionnaires going anon, do it logged in, but mark "anon" in the subject, so we know it's anon, but can have a laugh over which Legionnaires are secretly stanning or shitposting.

✦ Not necessarily a rule, but keep in mind that attitudes in the UP are different than our world. Most people are referred to generally as "people" or "sentients" instead of species-specific terms like "humans." Most racist, homophobic, transphobic, sexist, and other "ist" attitudes are now uncommon among most species in the UP. Many sexual orientations exist, polyamory and polygamy are considered acceptable, and gender identity is very flexible. Species-based xenophobia tends to be the bigger social ill and even with that, many are against it. The species that are most disliked and distrusted are Durlans, Daxamites, and Roboticans. If you want to use them for fun, common UP cursewords are on the Legion Basics page.

✦ Beyond sticking to those basics, don't worry about getting anything "wrong." It's a meme and people tend to say stupid things on memes. You can even make up fake species and planets and details about them. The UP is huge and has lots of planets and species not mentioned in the game info.

✦ You can pretend to write things from the POV of Legion staff sharing the deets on the Legionnaires. However, they wouldn't share tactical info on the Legionnaires that could get them hurt in battle, only juicy gossip. Also, if someone is writing from the POV of Legion staff and writes something about your character that your character doesn't actually do, keep in mind that half the time people make shit up. It'll just be false gossip.

✦ Try to keep anything that can't be put behind a link sfw. While you can write someone sharing the start of their steamy slash fanfic, try to keep it limited to just part of it. Linking to fanart as if it was made in universe is a-okay, but just make sure to put it under a link and warn if it it's nsfw. Please check character ages before posting any nsfw stuff to make sure they're over 18.

✦ Feel free to get really crazy. Fandom gets crazy and fandom is no different in the glorious robot future. There are normal posters, shitposters, trolls, rpf ficcers, stans, slashers, all the same things our time has. There are macros and gifs and ongoing fake memes you can make up. There will be a few preposted topics but you can make up new ones or just have anons create new topics or troll.

✦ The meme is generally modless and has no thread-freezing. Fandom plays it dangerous in the future and the ic mod rarely intervenes, though anons sometimes try to get them to. Anon comments can be deleted by the real mods at the request of players (like say if they made a formatting mistake and want to repost) but there should be no need to delete anything beyond that since it's all IC.

Knocked my face right into my cereal- I think the rebound hit Maine. Or Iowa. Poor kid.

Both. Like I said: it was a good ricochet.

[Let's just not talk about Iowa, shall we]

God I miss them.

[ Even the triplets. They'd been fun if nothing else. ]

[Dammit he thought they weren't talking about that]

Hey. Not here.

[They have a very eager audience. Keep a lid on it, at least in public.]

What, they're in an entirely different plane of reality. I'm allowed to miss them.

[ Good cover, York.

Technically, death is a different level of existence, right? Right. ]

Shit, South would love this.

What, the attention, or the opportunity to throw us under the bus?

[Hopefully it's a good enough save.]

I was gonna say 'a chance to be a celebrity on her own merit' but she'd probably end up paired with her brother anyway and we'd get that whole song and dance again.

But yeah, both.

Well, Dipper and Mabel are doing pretty well on their own merits, and they're twins. [He shrugs.] It's different here.

And that's assuming that both of them show up.

Maybe if I focus real hard with my luck manipulation someone we know will show up. Maybe. I still haven't been able to figure it out, it's not consistent.

...then again knowing my overall luck fucking Reggie would show up.

[Or he could bring in the Meta.]

Yeah, how about you not fuck with the space-time continuum or whatever it is that we're dealing with here.

Yeah I just use it to get fresh coffee.

You can't just say that and not share.

Well I woulda but the last time we were in the mess together we kinda fought. And then I was pissed with you.

WHAT HAPPENED

DETAILS PLEASE

He's spending all his time with master chief. I mighta got jealous.

oh my goddesses it's true!

After everything we've shared. How could he?

[For fuck's sake, York]

[Okay, he's got options here. He can get upset. He can get worse. Or he can try to get back in kind and spin this narrative so wildly that the fans will be off base for months.]

[There's an obvious choice here, isn't there.]

If I'm remembering this correctly - and I am - you left me. You have no claim to any of my time after that.

I'M SCREAMING I KNEW I WAS RIGHT!

OH MY GODS

OH MY GODS

FREESMITH IS CANON

I SPROCKING KNEW IIIIIIIIT

I thought you were dead!

[ A little truth, a lot of a lie in the inflection. ]

I thought you were dead, baby, I'm sorry.

[He's going to go full Donut here, because the best lies have a little bit of truth in them but this truth hurts a lot if he stops to really think about it. Drama it is.]

You didn't check, and you left! Sorry isn't good enough, York. I've moved on.

Does he rub your shoulders like I used to? Hold you at night when you get lonely? He doesn't even know what your favorite color is, Wash, or how to make those waffles you like!

[ oh if they're gonna do this? They're gonna do the hell out of this. ]
